    Low Carb, High Protein Pancakes

    Recipe Introduction


    Can't afford the high price of pre-packaged low carb pancake mix?
    Try this recipe for protein pancakes.

    The unprocessed bran flakes add a little dignity and bite to these
    very economically made low carb egg white pancakes. The high
    fiber content of the unprocessed bran flakes drops the effective
    carb count to just 6 grams!


    List of Ingredients




    1/4 cup unprocessed bran flakes
    10 large egg whites
    1/4 tsp cream of tartar
    1 packet artificial sweetener
    1/8 tsp ground cinnamon

    Recipe



    Whip egg whites and cream of tartar with hand mixer until stiff peaks
    develop (if you neglect to do this, your pancakes will have a flat,
    omelet-like texture). Fold in remaining ingredients and mix well. The
    batter will be stiff and foamy. Spray skillet with non-stick cooking spray
    and spoon in batter. Cook until each side is lightly browned. Serve with
    butter replacement and sugar-free syrup if desired.

    Food Fact: Cream of Tartar isn't a liquid cream, it's a fine powder found
    in the spice aisle at the supermarket. Cream of tartar is a baker's secret
    to maintaining the fluff and height of egg whites that have been beaten into
    a stiff foam. It helps maintain form while being mixed with other heavier
    ingredients in merengues and icings. Makes 1 serving.
